Map of the UK

Mickleton is a small village and civil parish in County Durham, set in the upland valley of Teesdale. It sits close to the River Tees and on the edge of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with reservoirs such as Grassholme nearby, so it’s a handy base for walkers, anglers and nature enthusiasts.

The settlement retains a traditional stone-built character and has agricultural roots alongside a history of upland lead-mining; today the local economy mixes farming, tourism and small services, and the village keeps a close-knit feel around its hall, church and pub while remaining within easy reach of market towns such as Barnard Castle.
